OBJECTA computer network failure shut down Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles operations across the state Wednesday morning, but by early afternoon all services were again available.

Lindsey Bohrer, a bureau spokesman, said the bureau resumed processing registrations around 12:30 p.m. and licenses at 1 p.m.

The computers had gone down about 9 a.m. because of a network failure that was handled by the state Office of Information Technology, she said.
